[quote=Anonymous]When we had my son tested at age seven, he was well aware that he was different than other kids and that there were things that were difficult in a way that other kids didn't experience. I talked to him about these differences and told him that we need to understand how his brain worked so we could figure out whether there were other things we could so to make school more successful for him, and so he was going to be evaluated. His only two questions were whether he would get a shot and whether it would be painful at all. I actually think it was an ice breaker of sorts to be able to openly talk about things with my son.
